Earth 3rd Rock from the sun!!

Just a little song inspired by fleetwood macs gold dust woman.....they inspire me so much......Enjoy....


wake up in the morning
sunshine fills the room
and darkness fills my heart
did I just miss the last chance I had??
the sweetest kiss
on the darkest hour
repeating it all in my head
go to the door
bring in the morning paper
we used to read it together
betrayed by my heart
is this the only kind of love I have to give?
because you sure made a great lover
yet still I needed more
had to spread my wings
and fly right out of there
back in the recesses of my mind
I remember a love of the sweetest kind
now I'm on the other side
got to move on
doubts follow me everywhere I go
they ask if I am single
don't know exactly what to say
no going back
i know I will survive
the trouble never seemed to pass us over
hanging on like your stubborn pride
it may seem funny to you right now
but there is nothing more to say
I have reached my peaceful shore
you and I never walked on the water
our life just kept getting harder and harder
this is over baby
had to pack my bags and leave
with memories of
the sweetest love
to carry me through
all the troubled waters
trying to forget how wrong it was
hiding my heart away
lest it betray me again someday
and i'll walk high on the water
never look to see
if you are there to rescue me
just moving ahead
coming out of the darkness
I see the light
light to get lost in
some much ahead
too much behind
what is it I'm trying to find?
